This case is considered not a "Full-Tower" but a "Ultra-Tower" which is bigger than a super-tower!!!

This case is designed for both air cooling and liquid cooling.

Supports:
Ten 120mm fans or stock fans
One 360mm radiator (3x120mm) and two 240mm radiators (2x120mm).  Stock only one 240 rad but with a little modding you can fit two.
Eleven expansion bays so you can do 4-way SLI/CFX.
Thirteen 3.5" bays for HDD/SDD's.
USB 2.0/3.0
E-SATA 2/3

When I said this thing is massive I mean massive its dimensions are:
13.5" x 27.7" x 26.1" W x H x D - in inches! (bigger than my stand for my current tower)

Empty it weighs 47.3lbs full I would imagine close to 100lbs!

Motherboard form factors supported:
Micro ATX / ATX / Extended ATX / XL-ATX / SSI CEB / SSI EEB
No side windows though Sad but with mine it will have one ;)

Price:
USD $350 on newegg

Here is a link to this case

I will be starting a custom build with this rig but not sure if I want to do air or liquid cooling yet!!!  I will post pics when they become available with my build-in-progress!

Specs will be:

Asus Rampage III Formula mobo
Intel Core i7 950 unlocked to i7 975 Extreme 4.1Ghz
24GB DDR3 Triple Channel 2000Mhz Ram
Two Corsair Force GT 120GB SATA III SSD's Raid 0
Corsair H50 (for now)

Paint will be custom to resemble the ASUS Republic of Gamers!!!

Of course they use a tiny woman to show it off. She could almost fit inside of it.

Pretty neat, but all thsoe 120mm fans is a little surprising, especially at the top. I figured they'd stuff a 200 or 220mm in there, and allow for such fans on the side. And only 3x 5.25" bays? Though I'm sure one of those hot-swap bays could be converted.

The Cosmos II weighs 50lbs empty!  Just imagine it loaded with radiators and four video cards, probably over 100lbs.

My first real Gamer was 110Lbs, needless to say I didn't move it much, my current is around 65-70 lbs due to the 850 watt Modular p/s, but I have a Carry strap for it., and my old rig was 21" CRT, vs 21" lcd........there is a 65lb or more savings right there..........and my room stays cooler with the lcd too..........LOL

I met that tiny woman at a computer trade show in Chicago about 4 years ago, and she is tiny, but very knowledgeable

I have decided to use a different case for my new build as I don't want a empty 50lb case and its $350.  So I have decided to go with the new NZXT Switch 810 which will also take advantage of the liquid cooling features of the Cosmos II.

The case retails at $170 and has room for 10x 140mm fans which you can have: Two 140mm radiators, one 3x140mm and one 2x 140.  That's a lot of cooling potential over the Cosmos II.
